Memphis is one of the most critical logistics, manufacturing, and distribution hubs in the United States. Often referred to as the nation’s freight capital, Memphis sits at the intersection of river, rail, road, and air transportation—making it a cornerstone of national and global supply chains. Anchored by the Mississippi River and the Port of Memphis, a dense interstate network including I-40, I-55, I-22, and I-69, major BNSF, Union Pacific, CSX, and Norfolk Southern rail corridors, and Memphis International Airport—the world’s busiest cargo airport—Memphis supports nonstop freight movement tied to food distribution, consumer goods, automotive components, medical supplies, industrial manufacturing, and e-commerce fulfillment.
Facilities operating throughout Memphis, South Memphis, Downtown Riverport areas, Frayser, Millington, Olive Branch (MS), Southaven (MS), West Memphis (AR), and surrounding Mid-South industrial corridors function in some of the highest-throughput environments in North America. Overnight air cargo, hub-and-spoke parcel distribution, rail intermodal transfers, cross-docking, and long-haul truck routes place constant stress on palletized freight. Dense pallet stacking, mixed-SKU loads, repeated handling cycles, and tight delivery windows make dependable pallet reinforcement and layer separation materials essential to daily operations.
Corrugated fiberboard plays a central role in Memphis-area logistics by providing a lightweight, cost-effective solution for pallet reinforcement, layer separation, top-load protection, and unit load stabilization. For Memphis facilities balancing speed, scale, and reliability across national and international distribution networks, corrugated fiberboard is a foundational packaging material that supports consistent performance and cost control.
Custom Packaging Products supplies bulk corrugated fiberboard sheets to manufacturers, distributors, importers, exporters, and logistics facilities throughout the Memphis metropolitan area. Our corrugated fiberboard is engineered for consistent strength, flatness, and predictable performance in demanding, high-velocity, multi-modal logistics environments.

Packaging & Shipping Challenges in the Memphis Metro Area
Facilities across the Memphis region commonly face:
-
Continuous inbound and outbound air cargo volume
-
Frequent pallet rehandling during overnight sort and transfer cycles
-
Dense pallet stacking to maximize trailer, aircraft, and warehouse utilization
-
Mixed-SKU pallets serving retail, healthcare, automotive, and industrial customers

Memphis Case Example
A national e-commerce fulfillment operation in Memphis experienced recurring pallet instability and carton compression during overnight shipping cycles. Inconsistent layer separation materials led to uneven pallet heights and load shifting during rapid transfers.
After switching to CPP truckload-supplied corrugated fiberboard, the operation improved pallet uniformity, reduced transit damage, and stabilized outbound shipments across national distribution lanes. Packaging costs per pallet decreased while service-level performance improved.
